The Lagos state police command has said it will be taking action on club owner, Mike Eze-Nwalie Nwogu aka ‘Pretty Mike’, for putting a leash on two girls and treating them like dogs while attending a wedding in the state last weekend.
The state Public Relations Officer, Dolapo Badmus, who spoke to Linda Ikeji, said the command will be inviting Pretty Mike over to caution him over his action. The command will also be investigating if the girls consented to being chained and also whether they are underaged.
She said the command doesn’t have to wait for a petition before it acts.
Her words: “You have seen the video, this is our responsibility, We don’t need to wait for a petition”
Asked if the act was a crime, she said “If i put a chain on your neck and I start dragging you around, is it a crime to you?”
“What if I give my consent”, LIB asked. The police spokesperson replied: “If you consent to inhuman treatment, we will study what made you give your consent, put your age, willpower and vulnerability into consideration. We are taking action but we have not finished studying what needs to be studied.
